It will be interesting to discover if there will be another hold-up with Customs quarantining the cars for weeks due to the great Baltimore spider invasion. If so Pt Kembla and Melb' will probably get the same delays.

Tortugas has finally left Pt Brisbane, currently off Stradbroke Island on its way to Pt Kembla. Does anyone know if the Mustangs have been impounded for intensive Quarantine inspection (Spider Count) like the previous vessel from Baltomore? TORTUGAS Current position (Vehicles Carrier, IMO...

Yes in the US, the 10 Sp Auto is now a NCO (No Cost Option) on the 2025 Mustang, but the B&O Sound System is back to a $995 Option. Last time I looked FoA are still charging $3.6K extra for the 10 Sp Auto. 2025 US PRICE LIST 2025MY Mustang PL515 Price List.pdf (mustang7g.com)

Got me there! Although its actually even worse - at $3,648 after LCT. But at least you get a lot of gears to Paddle-Shift / play with.....

Better than a leggy blond?

Except when you have to fork out $2K-$3K for a new clutch! Forgot to mention the 10A80 has 1:1 at 7th gear - 3:55 Final Drive, so it gives a lot of flexibility, as some key Mustang Gt competitors have found at the Bathurst Production 6Hr Races - where they can always get the right gear, with...

The 10 Speed Auto with manual Paddle-Shift solves those issues...,,, And it is heaps of FUN!

Great idea! I'll do the same - especially as Officeworks are just around the corner.

Sounds like she needs educating...................or changing. lol ;)

Red for the S650 in Australia also, although the previous S550 was clear/white.

The Customs Officers might be too scared of the spiders to inspect the cars.....OMG could be.....demand for Danger money? .strike action....?

Tortugas finally docked at Brisbane yesterday, so it will be interesting to see if there will be any illegal immigrant spider Quarantine holdups.

Tortugas is still awaiting Brisbane entry, and Tosca is still awaiting entry to Pt Kembla (scheduled for 17/12/24). just speculation, however as the cars for both Tosca and Tortugas both come from the same spider infested Compound at Baltimore, they could also possibly Quarantine Tortugas...

It will be interesting to see if the Tortugas cars are also Quarantined at Brisbane (and Port Kembla). Although originally due at Brisbane on 18/12/24, It is currently still anchored off Caloundra, and has been rescheduled to depart Brisbane 28/12/24

Yes, frustrating Tortu-re of the Tortugas of sorts, although you will get your shinny new mustang before me. Enjoy!

They also tend to be blinded by their own Egos - not bothering to check on details, like falsely assuming the Active Exhaust is exclusive to the Dark Horse (also Standard on the GT), and failing to recognise our "Export" GT comes standard with the "Performance Pkg" - which gives it identical...

If it was disqualified for unavailability - why not default to the GT - with the same brakes and suspension (Handling), and only a couple of Kw less ???

This could help - Seems like the VIC Gov know how to charge (exploit & extort) !! Registration fees : VicRoads

Port Kembla has always been a hot-spot for Militant ultra-left (Stalinist) Unions in the past, however I don't know if that is still the case. There does seem to be a lot less "Industrial Action" over the last couple of years.
